OK thanks. That is good news.

One of the great things about 0.10.2 is how well it runs on a Raspberry Pi 3 with the OpenGL driver. I haven't found anything different from a normal Ubuntu or Mint x86 installation. 60fps is normal as long as you don't do ridiculous things. In fact, I have been using Raspberry Pi 3 as speed test fo...

Just out of interest, is there any reason you chose "grump" as your forum name?

"That sounds amazing. How did you do that? I'm still super stoked to see that compiler. When will you release it? Do you have some example data, maybe a short video?" I have mostly coded the decoder at this stage - I told you that. It is pretty simple at less than 1k lines of lua. I also ...

Yes, yes, all codecs are written in code, however they mostly they work in image space. They use properties of the image to compress the data and reconstruct it at the other end. I know the latest ones are very sophisticated, but techniques like DCTs are signal processing methods to reduce redundant...

The encoder can be as simple as a brute force pixel by pixel set, however even a simple encoding scheme can do much better - The basic method for a general image is first to reduce the color space to 12 or 10 bits - in games you often don't want photo realistic. Reducing the color space means more b...

This is a media player that lets you store/generate images and animations as compact strings. It is like a custom codec that compresses images into drawing commands. Since it accepts strings, you could for example, have a window in your game that is controlled by a program running on a remote server...

I am about 80% through coding a pixel based draw engine in love2d. The idea is to make an interpreter that looks like a 16 bit CPU, but the instructions are aimed at drawing primitive graphics objects on a pixel map. Each instruction is a byte pair, so a "program" is just a string. This me...

I am working on a type of media player that generates video and audio from command strings. The images can be still or animated and each 1/60 frame is a set of 16 bit opcodes that drive a primitive graphics draw engine, so a picture is made from a set of block fills, runs and pixel draws. Sound is s...

OK thanks for that I will try it out.
